Hi, 

How can I make [[Draft:Ritual Network|the article]]<!-- link inserted by Pythoncoder, Jan 28 2019 --> less generic and like a sales pitch? I am just trying to add a page and don't want it to benefit the company or promote their product. 

Any advice?  <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:LewisSankaa|LewisSankaa]] ([[User talk:LewisSankaa#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/LewisSankaa|contribs]]) 13:49, 7 January 2019 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:{{ping|LewisSankaa}} Here are some of the promotional parts I found that {{u|DragonflySixtyseven}} removed:
::“top-tier content creators”
::“various talents throughout the world”
::“content verticals”—marketing term
::“Ritual offers tools that video content creators use to further develop their growth, combined with the ability to support influencer marketing campaigns and protect and monetise the creators assets.”—Sounds like a press release
::“ASMR content creators generate millions of views and Ritual Network helps connect them with advertisers who are looking to reach their audience through paid promotion.”—ditto
:Hope this helps. —[[User:pythoncoder|<span style="border-radius:10px;background:blue"><span style="color:aqua"> python</span><span style="color:#ff0">coder </span></span>]] ([[User talk:pythoncoder|talk]] &#124; [[Special:Contribs/pythoncoder|contribs]]) 16:55, 7 January 2019 (UTC)

== Saudisoft ==

Hey Pythoncoder... referring Saudisoft page declined on Oct. 3 ... because of promotional language 
I know that some of the references are in Arabic does this affect the declaration or should I just enhance the content???
especially that I already have this content in Wikipedia Arabic and I'm trying to make it multilingual
this is the link of my draft https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Saudisoft
thank you [[User:Geegooo|Geegooo]] ([[User talk:Geegooo|talk]]) 12:25, 12 February 2019 (UTC)Geegoo
:{{ping|Geegooo}} The language of the references did not affect my decision to decline your draft. References on the English Wikipedia can be in any language. I declined your draft because it contained promotional language. Specifically, its frequent description of the company as providing "[[WP:SOLUTIONS|solutions]]" made it read more like a marketing document. To fix this problem, you should edit the article to remove instances of the word "solution" or replace "solution" with a less vague and more neutral term like "product" or "service". (If you are using the word "Solution" [[proper noun|as part of a product name]], such as with [[Network Solutions]], you can leave it in.) —[[User:pythoncoder|<span style="border-radius:10px;background:blue"><span style="color:aqua"> python</span><span style="color:#ff0">coder </span></span>]] ([[User talk:pythoncoder|talk]] &#124; [[Special:Contribs/pythoncoder|contribs]]) 13:24, 12 February 2019 (UTC)
:{{ping|Pythoncoder}} I enhanced the content following your advice and resubmit it again :) 
hope it works this time, and thank you for your help :), please, if you can read it and tell me your opinion about it [[User:Geegooo|Geegooo]]

Thanks for reviewing [[Saguna Baug]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Saguna_Baug).

The changes as suggested as been incorporated.

Please note that I as an a write is not associated or paid for this article. I am a freelancer, and the post in question, given the strong references of first class publications, is worthy of Wikipedia coverage. Also, there are other similar agri-tourism initiatives, which has been covered on the Wikipedia, like [[Stream Cliff Farm]] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_Cliff_Farm

Will highly appreciated your review and acceptance of this article on Wikipedia.

Hey, just wanted to let you know that I declined your G10 nomination of [[:User:Dessiahc97/sandbox]].

== Question? ==

`So, I am looking at the facts right now. I am really putting a lot of thought into this. However, I feel it might be best for the ''Signpost'' if you speak to Bri about becoming the new Editor-in-Chief. You have been extremely active for a while now, and I can't think of anyone that would be a better fit. Could you please lift this cloud we are under?

== ''The Signpost'' ==

Some of us have finally taken the decision to retire from ''The Signpost''  never to return - or are about to. None of these retirements are an admission of wrong-doing or under a cloud, but the bad blood and personal attacks are untenable. Nobody helping to run the magazine should be expected to go through this. I appreciate everything you have done for ''The Signpost'' over the last few months and if you believe, as {{U|Smallbones}} does that it's worth saving, I can't argue against it - except that nobody cared two hoots about it disappearance a year ago when I jumped in and resurrected it; you and Smallbones have my best wishes but unfortunately probably not with much support from me. I would, however, guard against encouraging newbies with little knowledge of Wikipedia, and blatant detractors of ''The Signpost'' and it editors from taking part. That said, This scandal, having spilled over multiple talk pages, ANI, MfD, and Arbcom, has had, IMO, already enough exposure and yet another article about it all in ''The Signpost'' will not change anything, will rub more salt into people's wounds, and allow even more polemic and vituperation in the comments section from people who have already had more than enough to say. Please think about it. [[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung|talk]]) 04:58, 10 March 2019 (UTC)

== Please participate to the talk pages consultation ==

Hello

Our team at the Wikimedia Foundation is working on a project to improve the ease-of-use and productivity of wiki talk pages. As a Teahouse host, I can imagine you’ve run into challenges explaining talk pages to first-time participants.

We want all contributors to be able to talk to each other on the wikis – to ask questions, to resolve differences, to organize projects and to make decisions. Communication is essential for the depth and quality of our content, and the health of our communities. We're currently leading a global consultation on how to improve talk pages, and we're looking for people that can report on their experiences using (or helping other people to use) wiki talk pages. We'd like to invite you to [[Talk pages consultation 2019|participate in the consultation]], and invite new users to join too.

We thank you in advance for your participation and your help.

This was a spin-off from WikiProject Portals, for the purpose of developing zero-page portals (portals generated on-the-screen at the push of a button, with no stored pages).

It has been merged back into WikiProject Portals. In the MfD the vote was "demote". ''See [[Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:WikiProject Quantum portals]].''

=== Hiatus on mass creation of Portals ===

At [[WP:VPR]], mass creation of Portals using semi-automated tools has been put on hold until clearer community consensus is established.

== Question regarding my draft: Anton Ginzburg ==

Hi there! I am rather new to Wikipedia and am still learning. You left a comment that the page is missing inline citations. I was wondering if you could let me know if you were referring to the artist's accomplishments (like "Public Commissions" and "Selected Solo Exhibitions") or to text such as "awarded finalist of the Festival"? When I look at other examples such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Condo, not all the exhibitions have inline citations. 
Thank you for your help!

== [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Portals]] update #031, 01 May 2019 ==

=== Back to the drawing board ===

Implementation of the new portal design has been culled back almost completely, and the cull is still ongoing. The cull has also affected portals that existed before the development of the automated design.

Some of the reasons for the purge are:
* Portals receive insufficient traffic, making it a waste of editor resources to maintain them, especially for narrow-scope or "micro" portals
* The default {{tl|bpsp}} portals are redundant with the corresponding articles, being based primarily on the corresponding navigation footer displayed on each of those articles, and therefore not worth separate pages to do so
* They were mass created

Most of the deletions have been made without prejudice to recreation of curated portals, so that approval does not need to be sought at Deletion Review in those cases.

In addition to new portals being deleted, most of the portals that were converted to an automated design have been reverted.

Which puts us back to portals with manually selected content, that need to be maintained by hand, for the most part, for the time being, and back facing some of the same problems we had when we were at this crossroads before:
* Manually maintained portals are not scalable (they are labor intensive, and there aren't very many editors available to maintain them)
* The builders/maintainers tend to eventually abandon them
* Untended handcrafted portals go stale and fall into disrepair over time

These and other concepts require further discussion. See you at [[WT:POG]].

However, after the purge/reversion is completed, some of the single-page portals might be left, due to having acceptable characteristics (their design varied some). If so, then those could possibly be used as a model to convert and/or build more, ''after'' the discussions on portal creation and design guidelines have reached a community consensus on what is and is not acceptable for a portal.

See you at [[WT:POG]].

=== Curation ===

A major theme in the deletion discussions was the need for portals to be curated, that is, each one having a dedicated maintainer.

There are currently around 100 curated portals. Based on the predominant reasoning at MfD, it seems likely that all the other portals may be subject to deletion.

See you at [[WT:POG]].

=== Traffic ===

An observation and argument that arose again and again during the [[WP:ENDPORTALS]] RfC and the ongoing deletion drive of {{tl|bpsp}} default portals, was that portals simply do not get much traffic. Typically, they get a tiny fraction of what the corresponding like-titled articles get.

And while this isn't generally considered a good rationale for creation or deletion of articles, portals are not articles, and portal critics insist that traffic is a key factor in the utility of portals.

The implication is that portals won't be seen much, so wouldn't it be better to develop pages that are?

And since such development isn't limited to editing, almost anything is possible. If we can't bring readers to portals, we could bring portal features, or even better features, to the readers (i.e., to articles)...

=== Some potential future directions of development ===

==== Quantum portals? ====

An approach that has received some brainstorming is "quantum portals", meaning portals generated on-the-fly and presented directly on the view screen without any saved portal pages. This could be done by script or as a MediaWiki program feature, but would initially be done by script. The main benefits of this is that it would be opt-in (only those who wanted it would install it), and the resultant generated pages wouldn't be saved, so that there wouldn't be anything to maintain except the script itself.

==== Non-portal integrated components ====

Another approach would be to focus on implementing specific features independently, and provide them somewhere highly visible in a non-portal presentation context (that is, on a page that wasn't a portal that has lots of traffic, i.e., articles). Such as inserted directly into an article's HTML, as a pop-up there, or as a temporary page. There are scripts that use these approaches (providing unrelated features), and so these approaches have been proven to be feasible.

What kind of features could this be done with?

The various components of the automated portal design are transcluded excerpts, news, did you know, image slideshows, excerpt slideshows, and so on.

Some of the features, such as navigation footers and links to sister projects are already included on article pages. And some already have interface counterparts (such as image slideshows). Some of the rest may be able to be integrated directly via script, but may need further development before they are perfected. Fortunately, scripts are used on an opt-in basis, and therefore wouldn't affect readers-in-general and editors-at-large during the development process (except for those who wanted to be beta testers and installed the scripts).

The development of such scripts falls under the scope of the Javascript-WikiProject/Userscript-department, and will likely be listed on [[Wikipedia:User scripts/List]] when completed enough for beta-testing. Be sure to watchlist that page.

==== Where would that leave curated portals? ====

Being curated. At least for the time being.

New encyclopedia program features will likely eventually render most portals obsolete. For example, the pop-up feature of MediaWiki provides much the same functionality as excerpts in portals already, and there is also a slideshow feature to view all the images on the current page (just click on any image, and that activates the slideshow). Future features could also overlap portal features, until there is nothing that portals provide that isn't provided elsewhere or as part of Wikipedia's interface.

But, that may be a ways off. Perhaps months or years. It depends on how rapidly programmers develop them.

=== Keep on keepin' on ===

The features of Wikipedia and its articles will continue to evolve, even if Portals go by the wayside. Most, if not all of portals' functionality, or functions very similar, will likely be made available in some form or other.

And who knows what else?

No worries.

== Pull request for [[User:Pythoncoder/Scripts/voteSymbols.js|voteSymbols]] to fix that "speedy keep delete" ==

Hi {{u|Pythoncoder}}, I noticed your latest change to voteSymbols.js didn't actually fix the bug you tried to fix, since the "keep deleted" part will only be matched on the next iteration of the loop. You'll need to peek at the word after and skip using <code>continue</code> or manually increment the counter if it's also a compound. I think this would be the easiest if merging the words and checking if the words should be merged were split into two different fuctions, i.e.

{{cot|Original function left, split functions right|bg=none}}
<syntaxhighlight lang="js" style="width:50%;float:left">
function mergeWords(a, b, j, k) {
  try {
    if(lowerNoPunct(j[k])==a&&lowerNoPunct(j[k+1])==b) {
      j.splice(k, 2, a+' '+b);
    }
    return j;
  } catch(e) {
    return j;
  }
}
</syntaxhighlight>
<syntaxhighlight lang="js" style="width:50%;float:right">
function canMerge(j, k) {
  if (lowerNoPunct(j[k])=='speedy'
    &&lowerNoPunct(j[k+1])=='delete') {
    return true;
  } // (...) elif all the other cases
  return false;
}
function doMerge(j,k) {
  j.splice(k, 2, a+' '+b);
}
</syntaxhighlight>

{{cob}}

and call the functions using while instead of if:

<syntaxhighlight lang="js">
while(canMerge(j,k)) {
  k++;
} // Increments k until there are no more compounds
doMerge(j,k-1); // Then merge the last
</syntaxhighlight>

Also, I think it's better to use the old symbols for endorse and overturn at DRV, because sometimes people want to review '''keep''' closures as well. I made several other changes to simplify the code and just to test things at a [[Special:Diff/895094052/895302876|fork I made]], if you're interested. Thanks for maintaining this script!

== Update about a script you use ==

Hi Pythoncoder. I'm [[User:DannyS712|DannyS712]] ([[User talk:DannyS712|talk]]), and I wanted to send you a warning about a change I am making to a script, [[User:DannyS712/DiscussionCloser]], that you currently import. If you are an administrator, feel free to ignore this message. For non-administrators, you should be advised that I am removing the script's automatic addition of {{tl|nac}} to your closes. If you have relied on this to mark such closes for you, please remember to add {{tl|nac}} yourself. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. Thanks, --[[User:DannyS712|DannyS712]] ([[User talk:DannyS712|talk]])

== MacKeeper page changes ==

Hi! You reverted edits of MacKeeper page with warnings. Can I ask why do you think I want to use Wikipedia for advertising? All the small changes I made were linked to the changes company made for fixing the problems it had. I linked articles like these https://seekingalpha.com/pr/17507804-mackeeper-accelerates-ambitious-transformation-new-international-senior-team and these https://mackeeper.com/blog/post/547-slippery-partnerships-cancelled/ .
Maybe, the features explanation - something you understood as advertising? But the new logo - can I change it? Cause the company doesn't use robot anywhere anymore.
Thanks!  <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Olehkalynyak|Olehkalynyak]] ([[User talk:Olehkalynyak#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Olehkalynyak|contribs]]) 07:30, 14 June 2019 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:{{ping|Olehkalynyak}} You can change the logo to the current one. The content added to the lede heavily favors recent developments; the lede should summarizing the whole article rather than containing content not in the rest of the article. The press release mentioned in the lede is too insignificant to include in the lede, meaning its apparent purpose is to promote [[WP:RECENTISM|recent]] corporate developments. While [[WP:SPS|self-published sources]] like the official site and press releases are okay for factual information, they cannot be used as a reference for the new version having “significant user experience and design improvements”. If you have a [[WP:COI|conflict of interest]], please disclose it. —[[User:pythoncoder|<span style="color:#004080">python</span><span style="color:olive">coder</span>]]&nbsp;([[User talk:pythoncoder|talk]]&nbsp;&#124;&nbsp;[[Special:Contribs/pythoncoder|contribs]]) 16:14, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

== Userbox ==

FYI I copied a userbox of yours to [[m:User:Alexis Jazz/Userboxes/Wikimedia]] so I could add it to my global user page. - [[User talk:Alexis Jazz|Alexis Jazz]] 23:23, 17 June 2019 (UTC)

== Diffs ==

I believe ArbCom or at least some of its members are fully aware of what transpired with Fram. If they need clues they can email me. I’ve posted about it already on their notice board. [[User:Jehochman|Jehochman]] <sup>[[User talk:Jehochman|Talk]]</sup> 02:13, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

== [[WP:CEN]] is now open! ==

To all interested parties: Now that [[Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2019 June 18#Wikipedia:CEN|it has a proper shortcut]], the [[WP:Current events noticeboard|current events noticeboard]] has now officially opened for discussion!

[[WP:CEN]] came about as an idea I explored through a [[Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Current events noticeboard|request for comment]] that closed last March. [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2019-05-31/Recent research|Recent research]] has re-opened the debate on Wikipedia's role in a changing faster-paced internet. Questions of [[WP:NOTNEWS]] and [[WP:Recentism]] are still floating around. That being said, there are still plenty of articles to write and hopefully this noticeboard can positively contribute to that critical process.

Thank you for your participation in the RFC, and I hope to see you at [[WP:CEN]] soon! &#8211;<span style="font-family:CG Times">[[User:MJL|<span style="color:black">MJL</span>]]&thinsp;[[User talk:MJL|‐'''Talk'''‐]]<sup>[[WP:WikiProject Connecticut|☖]]</sup></span> 19:10, 29 June 2019 (UTC)
